Moomin's Winter Follies by Tove Jansson

Due to the resounding success of the hardcover Moomin comics by Tove Jansson and Lars Jansson, Drawn and Quarterly is reissuing this classic comic in an all-new format. Available in an affordable kid-proof but kid-friendly flexicover, and in full color for the first time, these books are slimmer versions of the hardcovers, with one story in each volume while previous editions collected four. Moomin wakes up one morning to find the pond frozen over, and rather than hibernate, the family decides to brave the winter weather. At first, their wintry adventure seems to be going swimmingly, until Mr. Brisk of the Great Outdoors Club takes over and forces everyone to embrace the winter sports, whether they want to or not.

Praise for Moomin's Winter Follies

To know the Moomins was to know Tove [Jansson]. She poured her wit, dreams and fears into the characters.
